Finals thread

[Mark from Brisbane]

And Nein get their dream Cowboys v Broncos game, management would be wetting itself over the potential ratings and advertising.

 

[Wombat Legacy]

here WILL be a time when the grass root fans rebel against this game...mark my words. We don't need these interstate retards to enjoy rugby league

At least one of these ****s will be out

So when Rabs says Storm in 19 years heading towards their 9th Preliminary Final I think he should also have to say "asterisk - cheating for many".

Yeah it's as if the cheating never happened as they still talk about how many premierships the scum/Bellamy/Smith have won when they have only ever won one

I've got an idea. In fairness to the Qld sporting public let's put it on at Suncorp for a bigger crowd

Billy Slater pronounces Jessie Bromwich's name,
like Jessie Brom-witch. I thought it was Brom-itch, silent W.

Bugger the finals.
I'm watching the 76 GF.
Randall is still a legend.
Price is still a dog.
Rex is still saying " Bless my soul"
And I'm 11 again......
Go Manly !!!

 

[Brooke]

Looking at both these sides confirm how far off the pace we are, it's not a little it's a LOT!!

The Cowboys did have 16 of their 2015 premiership team playing. Think of how many of our top 17 were gone for a lot of the season.

Love that famous photo from that game of Gerard tackling the Ironman, Terry Randall, as the latter looks to get the pass away.

Great shot. Great player.

Interstate retards huh........ If you read my tagline.....a Croweater is a South Australian.

That Sydney/NSW first and only attitude is one of the reasons why the NRL is continually losing ground to the AFL and A-League.

Yes Tezza, I have the still shot of it in an old mag, and you can see exactly when it happened in the game when you watch it.
Just saw the flying wedge....
People these days would know not of what I speak but would love the uncomplicated, less regulated game it has become.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

I've got that game on DVD too and yes, you can spot that passage, where the photo was taken, quite easily.

By the way loved the Icelandic Viking Clap as they ran on.
Unknown it's not original , but it does look good!!

Funnily enough it's origins stem from the scottish premiership football league.

Iceland used it in europa cup but it has nothing to do with viking 'roots.' (sadly)



So.... how bad did the refs stuff the 2 games last night? Better ....worse than bris v titans?

 

[Shells Eagles]

Have enjoyed all the games this weekend except Cronulla winning. Not sure if there has ever been a played that annoys me more than Fifita. The way he carries on after every tackle, flops on top of completed tackles and is continually mouthing off like a pork chop to the refs so full of his own importance - what has he actually ever achieved except for the award for being an embarrassment to the game . Gallen has always made my skin crawl however this guy has taken my disgust to a new level ...................,

 

[COMMANDER]

Haven't had one result I like so far this week end, and the care factor around this afternoons game is nil.

No where near as much impact as Friday night, two pretty good games actually.

Actually jogged my memory with that, the barber shop at terrigal had a large copy of that shot framed on the wall, was always gunna make an offer for it but never did...... damn.
The shops gone now, probably so has the barber !!!

Not just that they have 16 out of the 17 playing, interesting to see just how much support JT has from players around him - he cops a bit of pressure from the defence? No problem, shovel the ball to Coote or Morgan...oh, and he has time to do that because he got a snappy pass from Granville to start with. See what that type of player can do when he's not the Lone Ranger...? Hmmmm...

The Vikings raided Scotland ... and Scotland gave them the clap ... fair enough.

I will be very surprised if it's not a cows v storm gf. That game last night was streets ahead in quality over all other games thus far. Only injuries will stop this from happening imo.
